A hotly contested race at Plymouth's dirt track Saturday night seems to have left an impression on guest NASCAR driver Tony Stewart.

Stewart survived to win a close neck-and-neck sprint toward the checkered flag alongside Bill Balog in the last few laps of the Interstate Racing Association's Bumper to Bumper IRA Outlaw Sprint race. He told an official afterward that the closing laps of the race marked the best sprint car event he'd participated in this year, according to a racing association news released dispatched to Sheboygan Press Media Sunday morning.
